Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

I’ll definitely stay again someday!

Was expecting a quiet, boring night but the old fashioned hotel bar was lively with interesting people so I enjoyed the fun! It’s not a vibe for young children maybe but perfect t for me as a solo traveler to meet friends. I’ll definitely stay again someday!

The owner was very nice, but very unprepared. For his roll at the moment. Hopefully, things will be better when he is further along with this new venture.

Ein Hiker Imperium :) Es ist eher ein rustikales Hostel, als Hotel, hat aber faire Preise. Der Besitzer und für Mitarbeiter waren mehr wie Freunde und es war alles sehr persönlich. Ich würde wieder kommen, sollte es mich zurück auf den PCT bringen.
